- Damp behind the bath or under the tray
DIY versus a professional finish
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How we handle bathroom resealing in Aveley
The bead of silicone around a bath, tray or worktop is what keeps water out of the gaps. When it splits, shrinks or turns black, water gets behind it. Our team cut the old bead out completely and lay a new one in anti-fungal sanitary silicone. We work on baths, kitchen worktops & upstands and sinks & splashbacks, and people most often call us about a reseal done over the top of the old bead and a messy, uneven bead from a previous reseal.
Around Aveley, you’ll mostly find houses and bungalows, from older cottages to newer builds. Sealant and grout wear out here just as they do in a big town.
You are covered for a year from the day we finish. If there’s a problem with it, please phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.

Landlord and commercial work in Aveley
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
Landlords and agents in Aveley can book us as well as homeowners. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
How it works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon for most single baths and showers. In a smaller place like Aveley, parking is seldom the issue; lanes, gates and long drives are worth mentioning. If the job is outside, tell us about side access and how high the joints are.
- We look at every joint first and check for movement or leaks.
- Every trace of the old bead is removed, including the thin smear on the tiles.
- Joints are degreased and any mould is treated.
- When the joint is dry, and a bath has been filled with water, the new silicone goes on.
- We tool the bead to a neat finish and give you the cure time, generally around 24 hours.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts
- Clear the area around the work

What else we do in Aveley
Leave it or put it right?
Mould removers can fade the surface of a stained bead, but where mould is inside the silicone it normally comes back. The lasting answer is to remove the bead and start again. Around Aveley, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, and that is a much bigger job than renewing the sealant.
Commercial jobs are quoted on the same basis as homes: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs, along with when we can work on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll go through it with you.

How long will the resealing take?
Allow half a day or less for one room, longer when the kitchen is included. We’ll confirm how long your job needs when we quote.
Do you take out the old sealant first?
Yes, every time. New sealant will not bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.

What sealant work can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or other trade rather than us:
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint
- Failed grout lines across the wall
- Leaks from a shower valve, waste or pipework (a plumber’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we seal
- Baths
- Basins & vanity units
- Sinks & splashbacks
- Wet rooms
- Kitchen worktops & upstands
- Shower trays & enclosures
Common problems we fix in Aveley
Plenty of failed sealant has been laid over the top of older sealant. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it lifts, lets water in and traps mould underneath.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- New sealant laid over old sealant that is now lifting
- Leaks into the floor or ceiling below
- Lumpy, uneven sealant from a DIY attempt
Homes close to Church of St Michael include some older properties, and walls and floors in older homes can move, and sealant and grout show it first.
